Wildlife Crossing Bridges
The Wildlife Bridge
In 2018, Utah built a wildlife bridge over the busy highway 1-80. A 4.8-kilometer fence was created to help guide animals to the bridge. Normally, animals take a long time to discover and begin using wildlife bridges, so experts didn’t expect the bridge to get much traffic for several years. But recently, they’ve discovered many different kinds of animals are begin ning to move by using the bridge.
The Rope Bridge
On China’s Hainan Island in 2015, scientists created a bridge for Hainan gibbons that are the world’s most endangered primates and normally cross the forest by swinging high in the trees. But after a 2014 typhoon, landslides caused huge gaps in the forest, which were forcing the gibbons to make dangerous jumps. Scientists created a simple and cheap rope bridge, which settled the problem.
The Eco-Bridge
In Uttarakhand state in India, the forest department has built a special "eco-bridge" , made from all-natural materials. It’s 27.5 meters long and runs over one of the busiest highways in the area. Though the bridge is high in the trees, forest department workers hope the bridge will help smaller animals on the ground, too. Already, the bridge has gotten a lot of attention on the Internet, with many people taking photos in front of it every day.
The Park Bridge
The Phil Hardberger Park lies in San Antonio, Texas, and recently it has opened what they say is the largest wildlife bridge in the US. This bridge, unlike the others mentioned here, was built for use by both animals and humans. The park says they have already seen deer using the bridge.
1. What has made experts feel unexpected about the Wildlife Bridge?
A. It’s been completed within 2 years.
B. It’s being used by animals already.
C. It’s become an Internet-famous site.
D. It’s America’s biggest wildlife bridge.
2. Which bridges run over highways?
A. The Wildlife Bridge and the Eco-Bridge.
B. The Wildlife Bridge and the Rope Bridge.
C. The Eco-Bridge and the Park Bridge.
D. The Rope Bridge and the Park Bridge.
3. What is the common purpose in building the four bridges?

Linda Tutt High School opened a unique grocery store in the city of Sanger, where instead of paying for products with cash, their community can earn points which they then trade in. How do they gain points? By performing good deeds! All students, staff members and families in the school district have access to the daily goods they need to get through COVID-19——free of charge.
The store is supplied through a partnership with First Refuge Ministries, Albertsons grocery store, and Texas Health Resources. It is open three days a week. They even offer a COVID-friendly curbside(路边) pickup on Tuesday nights! It is meant to provide necessary daily goods for families in need. Families are automatically awarded points based on their family size, but students can help the families earn more by helping out around the school, cleaning, or getting good referrals(推荐) from their teachers. Headmaster Anthony Love called it “the ingenious method” , compared with the traditional approaches used to make students help others.
The store is operated and managed entirely by the students. Not only are they encouraged to show others kindness, but they also have a sense of control during this uncertain time. “Many of them come from low-income families that need just a little extra support with food,” Anthony added.
So the store has the extra profit of giving its student employees valuable experience. “I think this is the most exciting part of it, which they can carry with them as they graduate from high school and move on into the world,” Anthony said.
What a brilliant way to support their community! Between providing daily goods for families, giving kids experience concerned, and making their school a better place through good deeds, traditional businesses could learn a thing or two from this approach!
4. What is special about the grocery store?
A. Its owner is a local school.
B. It is open three days a week.
C. Students rent it free of charge.
D Good deeds can be exchanged for its goods.
5. Why did Linda Tutt High School open the grocery store?
A. To help people in need.
B. To get some incomes.
C. To keep people at home.
D. To offer students paid jobs.
6 What does the underlined word ‘‘ingenious” in Paragraph 2 mean?
A. Careful.
B. Strict.
C. Creative.
D. Flexible.
7. What is the added benefit of the grocery store?
A. It makes more families get goods.
B. It provides students with job skills.
C. It encourages students to graduate.
D. It saves more traditional businesses.
【答案】4. D 5. A 6. C 7. B

The German ship Polarstern is normally designed to break up heavy ice. But in September, 2019, the ship set sail from Norway with the goal of getting frozen into the Arctic ice cap for a year. The mission (任务) was part of a $155 million project known a s MOSAiC, led by Germany’s Alfred Wegener Institute ( AWI), whose goal is to learn more about the ice that forms near the North Pole. The ice cap here isn’t completely solid, and it’s a collection of floes —floating sheets of ice. As summer approaches, some of the ice melts and many floes break free.
By October, 2019, the ship was frozen into the Arctic ice north of Siberia. The mission wasn’t without its challenges. First and most importantly, the Polarstern had to find an ice floe that is used as its primary research base. The ice floe must be solid enough to anchor the ship and to support all the research equipment the scientists needed to use. However, doing it proved easier said than done. Once the ship was frozen in place, the scientists had to wrestle with the dangerous polar bears that were wandering around. Dealing with extreme cold was another challenge. They also had to face the long and dark polar night, a period during winter when the sun doesn’t rise at all in the central Arctic. In September, 2020, the boat finally returned to Bremerhaven, Germany.
"We are watching the Arctic sea ice die," said the mission’s leader, Markus Rex. The team reports that the ice shelf is full of holes, and that the ice that remains is thin and melting. Recent satell ite measurements support that idea. The size of this year’s ice cap is the second smallest ever recorded.
Next comes the long process of studying all the data that was collected during the last year. Thomas Krumpen, one of the scientists, said "We’ll likel y be busy with it over the next ten years."
The scientists hope this abundant information will help them make better predictions about climate change.
8. What does MOSAiC try to do in the Arctic?
A. Protect the ice cap.
B. Stop the ice melting.
C. Study the ice deeply.
D. Break up heavy ice.
9. What was the biggest challenge for the scientists on the Polarstern?
A. Finding the right floe.
B. Fighting the extreme cold.
C. Avoiding polar bears.
D. Reducing the loneliness.
10. What is the author’s attitude tow ards the situations of the Arctic ice?
A. Carefree.
B. Positive.
C. Tolerant.
D. Objective.
11. Which of the following best describes the journey to the Arctic?
A. Expensive.
B. Confidential.
C. Fruitful.
D. Casual.

细节理解题。

根据第一段“The mission (任务) was part of a $155 million project known as MOSAiC, led by Germany’s Alfred Wegener Institute ( AWI), whose goal is to learn more about the ice that forms near the North Pole. (该任务是一个名为“马赛克”的项目的一部分，该项目由德国的阿尔弗雷德·韦格纳研究所（AWI）领导，其目标是更多地了解北极附近形成的冰)”可知，“马赛克”项目的目的是更多地了解北极附近形成的冰。

故选C。

【9题详解】
细节理解题。

根据第二段“First and most importantly, the Polarstern had to find an ice floe that is used as its primary research base. (首先也是最重要的是，极地号必须找到一块浮冰作为它的主要研究基地)”和“However, doing it proved easier said than done.(然而，事实证明，说起来容易做起来难)”可知，找到合适的浮冰对极地号上的科学家来说是最大的挑战。

故选A。

【10题详解】
推理判断题。

根据文章第三段“"We are watching the Arctic sea ice die," said the mission’s leader, Markus Rex. The team reports that the ice shelf is full of holes, and that the ice that remains is thin and melting. Recent satellite measurements support that idea. The size of this year’s ice cap is the second smallest ever recorded. (“我们正在看着北极海冰消失，”该任务的负责人马库斯·雷克斯说。

研究小组报告说，冰架上到处都是洞，剩下的冰很薄而且正在融化。

最近的卫星测量数据支持了这一观点。

今年的冰帽是有记录以来第二小的)”可知，作者只是客观描述北极海冰的现状，没有作评判。

故选D。

【11题详解】
推理判断题。

根据第四段“Next comes the long process of studying all the data that was collected during the last year. Thomas Krumpen, one of the scientists, said "We’ll likely be busy with it over the next ten years."(接下来是对去年收集到的所有数据进行研究的漫长过程。

其中一位科学家托马斯·克伦彭说:“在未来的十年里，我们可能会忙于研究它。

”)”和第五段“The scientists hope this abundant information will help them make better predictions about climate change.(科学家们希望这些丰富的信息能够帮助他们更好地预测气候变化)”可推知，“极地号”此次北极之旅收获颇丰。

故选C。

D
When a living thing gives off a glow, it’s called bioluminescence. Fireflies are a well- known example of bioluminescence. Many mushrooms are also bio-luminescent. Fireflies and other bio-luminescent creatures light up thanks to chemicals inside their bodies. These chemicals are known as luciferins, which cause a chemical reaction that gives off light.
Plants don’t naturally have luciferins, so there are no naturally bio-luminescent plants. In the past, scientists created glowing plants by adding DNA from glowing bacteria. But the glowing effect was weak. They also created glowing plants by adding luciferins to plants. In 2017, a team at MIT was able to cause watercress plants to glow for about four hours. Now, researchers at a Russian company called Planta, working with scientists from the United Kingdom and Austria, have come up with a new method of creating glowing plants which last as long as they are alive. The scientists focused on an acid that is found in both plants and mushrooms. By adding certain parts of the DNA from glowing mushrooms to ordinary tobacco plants, the scientists are able to create plants that can make their own luciferins using this acid. The scientists report that the greenish light is about 10 times brighter than in earlier ones, which is strong enough to be easily recorded with an ordinary camera, but doesn’t affect the health of the plants.
Glowing plants reflect the way plants work. The scientists point out that the glowing isn’t constant ,but seems to change, depending upon what is happening inside the plants. Younger parts of the plants glow more strongly than older parts. The flowers glow especially brightly. They’ve noticed moving patterns of light in the plants, which they think may show activity in plants that normally can’t be seen. The glowing also helps uncover how plants may be affected by things around them. For example, the plants glow much more strongly when a ripe banana skin is nearby.
12. What does the first paragraph focus on?
A. What bioluminescence is.
B. What luciferins are used for.
C. Why chemical reaction exists.
D. Why some living things glow.
13. How do tobacco plants produce luciferins?
A. By glowing constantly.
B. By using an input chemical.
C. By making glowing bacteria.
D. By absorbing natural light.
14. What does the author convey about glowing plants in the last paragraph?
A. The activities of their light.
B. Their value to the scientists.
C. Their effects on other plants.
D. The spaces of their existence.
15. What is the best title for the text?
A. Scientists Create Glowing Plants
B. Glowing Plants Attract Scientists
C. Plants Glow Better and Better
D. Making Plants Glow Is Necessary
